Estimated employment: 1,760. This covers jobs in the published area, not residents of one county.

The middle half of annual wages runs from $60,460 to $96,340 in 2025, a span of $35,880. Percentiles describe the wage distribution across jobs. They do not identify experience levels or promise an offer.
